A Run, Run, Run Day!

No time for more than a list today! Sometimes those crazy days come along when we just have to "run, run, run" all day!
  • Started out the day getting everyone up and ready for school/work. Lunches packed, breakfast made, everyone clean and dressed and out the door.
  • Drove to Janelle to school while Connor rode his bike.
  • Drove Chris to the car repair shop to pick up our now extremely valuable nine-year-old Neon.
  • Picked up milk on the way home.
  • Grabbed some breakfast and tidied up the kitchen.
  • Started cleaning Janelle's room. Now that is a huge job!
  • Welcomed Jocelyn and her parents and her beautiful 6-day-old daughter Eliana for a quick visit. I even got to feed the baby!
  • Finished cleaning Janelle's room, and going through all the clothes to swap out for summer clothes. Sorted outgrown clothing into bags: good will, back to Tracy, stuff that is still cute enough for Hailey.
  • Put laundry in the washer.
  • Inhaled a quick lunch.
And now I'm writing my blog. Still to do today:
  • Start some pizza dough in the bread maker.
  • Go visit Connor at school to watch part of his "Medieval Feast".
  • Run to Walmart for soccer cleats and dress shoes for Janelle.
  • Stop at the grocery store for pizza toppings.
  • Pick up the kids at school.
  • Laundry.
  • Help Connor get his room tidied.
  • Get the guest room ready for Nana.
  • Laundry.
  • Clean all three bathrooms.
  • Supervise homework.
  • Feed supper.
  • Take Janelle to her first soccer practice of the season.
  • Clean up the kitchen.
  • Laundry.
  • Put two kids to bed (unless I can convince Daddy to do it tonight!)
  • Finish whatever I haven't gotten done yet.
  • Fall into bed, definitely exhausted!
Sorry! No time for being literary or philosophical today. Today I have to be a Mom!

  1. You forgot to add breathe to your list.
    Congratulate Jocelyn on her precious new little girl.

    Julie (so as not to confuse Chris with the initials)
